4 weeks in and lovin’ it! What a place, beautiful scenery, great summer weather and really friendly people. It’s amazing what you can do in a short time; made lots of new friends, both have jobs, two cars and a house now purchased, just waiting for the move-in date.
Still feels like a holiday, but weekends are passing by and we don’t have to catch a plane back to England – wow!
Every weekend so far we’ve been invited to a BBQ, great opportunity to meet new people and share experiences, learn more of the “Canadian Way” lifestyle!
Been on walks and come face to face with more deer, chipmunks, and some butterflies the size of your hand (well almost). There’s a bird around here that looks exactly like a Robin in the UK but these are on steroids, they’re as big as a Blackbird.

Settling in!
Well we have been here now for nearly 3 weeks now and we all love it!
We both started work on Monday the 14th July, and the boys love the area, the boys have been swimming in the lake. The sun is very hot coming from rainy England we are not used to it, we went for a hike the other day while the boys went on a bike ride and the sun was that hot we both got burnt even with sun cream!!! The area around us is just amazing you drive to work in the morning there are mountains all around we have drive over the Lake every morning!
We are getting used to driving on the wrong side of the road now (well the wrong side of the road for now).
We have been invited to so many BBQs over the last few weeks we have lost count!
We had only been here a few days when we were driving along a road and a deer walked out in front of us and he just carried on walking up the road!
